πŸ’– rt-preferences-viewer(8) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the Request Tracker Reference ✨ this is the manual page for rt-preferences-viewer, and yes we're gonna read the whole thing together, no skipping 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

rt-preferences-viewer β€” show user defined preferences πŸ‘‘


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

lowkey the whole vibe is just running it, fr fr:

rt-preferences-viewer

want just one person's tea? limit it to a user:

rt-preferences-viewer --user=falcone
    show only the falcone user's preferences

want to see everyone who's got a specific config option set? say less:

rt-preferences-viewer --option=EmailFrequency
    show users who have set the EmailFrequency config option

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so this script shows you the user settings of preferences πŸ’… that's the whole job. it's giving "who set what" and we love that for it.

but here's the part you gotta know, bestie β€” if a user is just chillin' on the system default, they will not be listed. no default-havers in this house πŸ™ˆ only the people who actually went in and set their own stuff.

and if you don't wanna see the entire crowd? you can limit it πŸ‘‡

  • to a user name or id πŸŽ€
  • or to the users who have a particular option set πŸ”₯

periodt. that's the whole thing.


ngl this one's short but it's iconic β€” no flags to memorise, just --user and --option and you're slaying ✨

perl v5.40.1 πŸ“ 2026-06-21 β€” mwah, that's the version and the date, bestie, thanks for reading the whole manual with me, you ate that πŸ’–πŸ§šπŸŒˆ
